Morgan, VT – Commuters traveling through Morgan should plan alternate routes this month as Valley Road closes for a culvert replacement project.
According to the Orleans County Sheriff’s Department, the closure began Wednesday, October 15 at 8 a.m. and will continue until Wednesday, November 5 at 5 p.m. The affected area lies just south of the Morgan/Holland town line, where through traffic will be prohibited for the duration of construction.
The project aims to replace an aging culvert to improve road safety and drainage. Local access will be maintained where possible, but motorists are advised to expect detours and delays along nearby secondary routes. Officials noted that the reopening date is subject to change depending on weather and construction progress.
Drivers are encouraged to check for updates from the Orleans County Sheriff’s Department and local town offices as work continues. A map showing the project area was also shared on social media to help residents plan travel accordingly.
